Doesn't sdist make rdist work properly via ssh, though? Or is it doing
something too different, too?

    angelic $ cat /u/netbsd/pkgsrc/net/sdist/DESCR
    Sdist invokes rdist in an intelligent manner.  Usually, the sdist
    command is invoked from the master distribution host.

    Invoking the command without any arguments will distribute the current
    working directory to all hosts in the netgroup for the platform you are
    running sdist on.
